Dearborn has become the first city in the United States to host the “Wall of Tears,” a 100-foot-long outdoor mural honoring 18,457 children killed in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023.

The most brutal part is not that China is using AI to sort garbage.
It is that China has pushed waste management so far that the old problem has reversed.

China used to worry about having too much garbage to process.
Now some waste-to-energy plants are facing the opposite problem:

not enough garbage.

Previously sealed landfills may even have to be reopened, not because China failed, but because waste has become fuel, feedstock, data, and part of an industrial recycling loop.

This is what China does best.

It takes the ugliest, dirtiest, most ignored corner of urban life — garbage — and turns it into engineering, automation, energy recovery, environmental governance, and industrial optimization.

Even trash gets absorbed into the machine.

In many countries, garbage is where governance collapses.

In China, even garbage becomes a system.

Mothballs scattered in the yard don't repel snakes, squirrels, moles, or anything else. They do poison the ground though.

Folk wisdom says toss a few under the porch or around the garden and the critters stay away. They don't. Outdoors, the vapor disperses too fast to ever reach a concentration that deters an animal, and there's no evidence it works on a single one of the species people use it for.

Mothballs are naphthalene, a pesticide. The vapor and the dissolved chemical contaminate your soil and leach into groundwater, where naphthalene has turned up in 44 states. The pellets look like candy to a kid or a dog, and one can do serious harm if swallowed.

And here's the kicker. The label says airtight container, indoors, with clothing. Using them any other way, including in your yard, is a violation of federal pesticide law.

In this case, the folk remedy not only doesn't work, but is illegal.

Un ado ukrainien tabasse plusieurs recruteurs de l'armée en criants "vous avez enlevé mon père" et libère un homme qui allait se faire envoyer au front sous les hourrah des passants.
Décidément la réalité est bien loin des tirades de la propagande occidentale.

“I think Americans are good, but America will be taken over and destroyed from the inside by the Zionist lobby.
The Americans do not see this.

They are getting decadent.

Zionists will use this to destroy them.”

while jerry seinfeld is trending for being a garbage human regarding palestine, let's take a moment and remember his predatory romantic relationship with a 17 year old child who was literally still a high school student when they started dating while seinfeld was 38 years old

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

The human species has essentially been transformed into a giant profit-generating machine for corporations.

Under capitalism, humanity exists to serve the interests of the corporation. We are all livestock; beasts of burden used to carry margin expansion forward from quarterly statement to quarterly statement. Enjoyment of life has no value other than the extent to which it can be used to increase the net worth of the shareholders.

That’s why everyone’s so unhappy. We’re not living with purpose. We’re not working together to build a better world and a better future, we’re just pulling levers to turn gears to make the arrow line go up on the graph in the conference room. It’s a hollow, pointless way for people to live.

It makes our whole culture vapid and soulless.

Music is made to be as profitable as possible, which means giving it the broadest possible appeal using formulaic song structure calculated to cause a chemical response in the largest number of human brains.

Movies are designed to draw the largest possible box office revenue at the lowest possible risk to studios and investors, often by just rehashing a movie that’s already proven successful in the past or by slapping together a story about an IP with pre-existing mass appeal.

Food is made to be fast and addictive rather than nourishing.

Healthy human connection has been commodified as social media intertwines with friendships and dating apps insert themselves into the development of romantic relationships.

Human sexuality is being warped and twisted as internet porn normalizes violence and degradation for the maximum number of clicks.

Attention and engagement have been monetized, creating an information ecosystem dominated by conflict and gossip designed to appeal to our baser instincts.

Advertisement is injected into every possible corner of our waking sensory experience, with any available space where the eye might rest or the ear might listen being flooded with psychological manipulation compelling us to consume. They’ll start running commercials in our dreams the instant they have the technology to do so.

You spend eight hours at the office working to generate corporate profits, then you come home and consume products to profit other corporations. You need your beer and snacks to unwind, your streaming services and social media to distract your mind from the stress of it all, your online clothing purchase to try to feel good about yourself, and your prescription drugs to get to sleep at night. People live their entire lives like this.

And that’s those of us who are lucky enough to be living in the global north. In the global south you get wage slavery and exploitation with far more toil, far less relaxation time, and no cheap products made by impoverished workers on other continents with which to comfort yourself.

All of humanity has been roped into this mess. And for what? To make the numbers in some bank accounts increase. To get some green arrows pointing upward on the stock exchange. To enable a few billionaires to buy islands and elections.

All while destroying the biosphere we all depend on for survival.

This, we are told, is the best possible system we could possibly be living under.

I personally do not believe this is true. I personally believe we can have better. Those who benefit from this current arrangement are going to assure us it’s impossible and do everything they can to stop us from changing it, but we do have the means to reclaim the wealth, dignity and happiness that they have stolen from us.

They built this whole machine on our backs. All we need to do is stand up.

Hawaii just passed the first state law in the country banning corporations from making political donations in state elections.

Now a Koch-backed legal group is suing to overturn it.

Big Money won't get out of our politics without a fight — one that we the people must win.

The connections in this one interview.

Virginia Giuffre reveals Epstein trafficked her to Andrew. She’s hit by a bus then “commits suicide.”

The interviewer’s mother gets kidnapped and is still being held for ransom.

Release the Epstein files.

People are homeless because of capitalism.

People are dyinğ from a lack of healthcare because of capitalism.

People are overworked, underpaid and unhappy because of capitalism.

Capitalism was not designed for the betterment of society. It was designed to enrich the ruling class.

Stop calling it a culture war. It is a class war.
They use culture war to divide you all so they can operate freely. You're worried about a gay person, a trans person while these Epstein Class elites are robbing you all BLIND.

Elon Musk is set to become a trillionaire within the next few months and a Karl Marx quote comes to mind.

Just days after news broke that the National Defense Authorization Act for next year would virtually merge the US and Israeli militaries, we now are hearing that the Intelligence Authorization Act is doing the same thing with the US Intelligence Community!

Introduced by Sen. Tom Cotton, the provision would rip open our nation's secrets and hand them over to a foreign country - one that has just been accused of ramping up its spying on us!

Isn't there a name for this?
